Distractions at home, affecting 10%, highlight the difficulty of maintaining focus in a non-traditional work setting. Interestingly, only 8% of workers cite time zone differences and motivation as significant issues, which may reflect the adaptability of remote workers to asynchronous communication and self-driven work. Taking vacation time is a concern for 7%, possibly due to the lack of clear boundaries between work and leisure.
